A training book I and my friend chanced upon dealing with building and developing a bakery business, howtostartbakery.com appears to be interesting. Do you feel it's worth it?
Also, I need a creative name for the business. I do wedding cakes, birthday cakes, cupcakes and even some cookies and pastries. Their are so many businesses out there and some of the good names have already been used. Does anyone have any good ideas?
Ashley your bakery name should reflect who you are and/or what your business mission is all about. It is a personal decision really. Try combining your's and your friend's names into your business name in some way..
